(Verse)

D

My Father when I was younger took me up onto the hill

                  F                                                        G

That looked down upon the city smoke and above the factory spill

D

He said now this is where I come when I want to be free

              F                                            G                                                  D

Well he never was in his life time, but these words stuck with me (Hey!)

D

So I  ran from all of this and climbed the highest hill

                  F                                 G

& I looked down on to my life above the factory spill

        D

I looked down onto my life ,was a family disgrace

              F                                                         G

And all my friends, the starting line the wages off to chase

                F                                                    G

And all my friends and all there jobs, all the bloody waste  (coz)

 

 

                   Bm      D           A                            G               D               A

There's only One way Of Life and that's your own, your own, your own

                   Bm      D           A                            G               D               A

There's only One way Of Life and that's your own, your own, your own

(Middle 8)

D (Hold)

Well I grew up learnt to love and laugh circled A's on the under pass

             (F)                                                         (G)

The noise we thought would never stop, Died a death as the punks grew up

          D (Hold)

We choked on all our dreams we wrestled with our fears

   (F)                                                      (G)                                        D

Running through the heartless concrete streets, chasing our ideas (run!)

(Verse)

D

And all the problems of the world wont be solved by this guitar

                      F                                       G 

And they won't stop coming either by the life I've had so far

       D

And the bright lights of my hone town wont be getting any dimmer

                         F                                           G  

Though their calling has receded like some old distant singer

                F                                                      G

Though the don't look so appealing to the eyes of this poor sinner

 

(Chorus)

                 Bm      D           A                            G               D               A

There's only One way Of Life and that's your own, your own, your own

                 Bm      D           A                            G               D               A

There's only One way Of Life and that's your own, your own, your own

A

That's Your own
